Judge halts Foothill Freeway work over legal flaws
A federal judge halted the Foothill Freeway project near San Francisco until compliance with relocation environmental and park protection laws is achieved. The ruling cites failed relocation plans for about 5 000 people many Mexican Americans and missing environmental impact statements. The injunction pauses federal funding while officials consider appeals as public advocates warn of broader implications for highway planning nationwide.
